The rotating device includes a first and second pair of fixed, positioned rollers whose axes are located at substantially a right angle to each other. The apparatus further includes a guiding device and a conveyor which causes the articles to move along a path which is parallel to the preselected path of travel. The apparatus is utilized in executing a method of receiving, rotating and conveying the articles along the preselected direction.
